SIBIM is the Ministry of Public Works’ (Ministerio de Obras Públicas) BIM task force, which aims to implement BIM in the different areas of public affairs in Argentina. It is part of the Strategic Plan for Digital Transformation of the Ministry, consisting of the implementation of technological tools that contribute to making national public projects more transparent, participatory and efficient. The documents of the SIBIM library are created to guide the implementation process. For more information contact: sibim@obraspublicas.gob.ar.
The main objectives of SIBIM are to:
- Develop an orderly set of principles, guidelines and procedures to regulate and establish a work methodology.
- Study alternatives that promote national alignment in relation to efficiency in information management, quality in public works, and inclusion and neutrality in the use of technologies.
- Generate references to expand the use of BIM in Argentina.
SIBIM’s documents are the result of national and international experiences, and are in continuous development. These documents are freely downloadable. Also relevant is the SIBIM’s YouTube channel.
The BIM Entity Information Matrix is a document that displays the IFC parameters required in a project in a standardized structure. It’s based on the Veteran Affairs Object Element Matrix and includes the main concepts from the BIM Standard for Public Projects: Type of Information (Tipo de Información, TDI) and Level of Information (Nivel de Información or NDI. AIA and BIM Forum USA definition).
Mibim is an open, self-assessment web platform to measure the BIM maturity level of an organization. The core pillars of the BIM implementation considered in Mibim are: Strategy, Processes, People, and Technology. At the end of the evaluation, the platform provides a report with key findings and recommendations.
This video explains how the integration of BIM requirements with the online building permits platform called DOM en LÃnea, which is one of Planbim’s goals for 2025, is being designed and developed. The automated evaluation of projects’ compliance with urban requirements using IFC files will give DOM workers more time to review more complex aspects of projects, and assure projects comply with urban regulations.
BIM Integration with DOM en LÃnea
CCI is aiming to increase construction productivity through a collaborative digital information infrastructure (CCI classification system) to enable consistent data exchange. Based on international standards and developed for digital processes, CCI covers the whole built environment: buildings, infrastructure and other civil engineering works and throughout the lifecycle – from planning through design, execution, operation, demolition to removal and reuse.
To increase the Estonian construction sector’s productivity by 2030, the platform aims to be the centre of information exchange between participants in the lifecycle of a building and the public sector. The platform does not store the information itself but consolidates the information from different databases and displays it as a 3D model.

Launched in 2017, KROQI is a platform associated with an ecosystem of applications for construction professionals to work together within BIM at all stages of a building’s lifecycle, thus improving the management of planning and resources.
This document, published in 2019, was developed by Planbim along with a steering committee composed of 34 private, public, and academic organizations. It is based on international BIM regulations, standards, and protocols. The main focus of the document is the exchange of information during the project. Its target audiences are the public institutions that regulate, tender and/or mandate projects to other institutions, and the private companies rendering services in this context. Despite this standard being developed for public projects, it may also be used for private projects. The document is available in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
